This and DATETIME. The workarounds for these are mostly fine if you’re just using SQLite as a key value store, but doing translations in SQL queries for these workarounds sounds atrocious.

90% of people aren't using "SQL" anyway. They are just doing basic CRUD operations on a data store with SQL syntax, usually abstracted through an ORM. The only reason they want a SQL database in the first place is for ACID.

If you find yourself caring about data types or actually writing a query, you should probably setup an actual database server.
